Announcing a smaller bit of one of you block is fine, more then that

Breaking up someone else' s block and making that announcement even if
its to modify traffic between 2 peered networks is typically not
looked as proper. Modify your taffic good. Do it to anyone other
traffic = bad.

The question shouldn't really be "would people do this to others' traffic";
the question should be "has it already happened and noone noticed."
